The purpose of this study was to bake sweet rice muffins with oak mushroom ($Lentinus$ $edodes$) powder. The process included substituting sweet rice flour for cake flour and adding oak mushroom powder. This study determined the optimal mixing conditions of oak mushroom muffins by adjusting the amounts of oak mushroom powder, whole eggs, and soybean oil. The mixing conditions for the oak mushroom muffins included 3 categories: oak mushroom powder (X1), whole eggs (X2), and soybean oil (X3) by Central Composite Design (CCD) which was optimized by Response Surface Methodology (RSM). Oak mushroom muffin formulation was optimized using rheology. Yellowness (p<0.001) and redness (p<0.05) displayed a linear model pattern, whereas lightness (p<0.05) was represented by a quadratic model. Among the sensory properties, variables that appeared to show significant values such as appearance (p<0.5), texture (p<0.5), and overall quality (p<0.5) were used to identify optimums. The result of mechanical properties showed significant values in gumminess (p<0.5) and chewiness (p<0.5). The numerical and graphical methods used in this study determined that the optimum formulation for oak mushroom powder sweet rice muffins was 8.75 g of oak mushroom powder, 235.95 g of whole eggs, and 19.93 g of soybean oil.

Wet noodles were prepared with wheat flour and mushroom powder (oyster and oak mushrooms), and effects of added mushroom powders on dough rheology and wet noodle quality were examined. Particle size distribution of mushroom powder ranged from 0.04 to $500\;{\mu}m$, which was different from that of wheat flour. The initial pasting temperature in amylograph, and the water absorption and the dough development time in farinograph increased with the increase of mushroom powder. The peak and final viscosities in amylograph, and dough stability in farinograph decreased with the increase of mushroom powder. Decrease of L value and increase of a and b values were shown with the increase of mushroom powder in wheat flour-mushroom powder composite as well as wet noodles. The cooked weight and volume of cooked noodles were decreased, but the turbidity of soup were increased with the addition of mushroom powder. Most of texture parameters (hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness and cutting force) of cooked noodles decreased with the addition of oyster mushroom powder, but increased with the addition of oak mushroom powder. From the result of sensory evaluation, wet noodles containing 3% oyster mushroom powder and 5% oak mushroom powder were rated as high quality wet noodles.

This study was conducted to develop an optimal composite recipe of nutritional cookies containing oak mushroom (Lentinus edodes) powder that has a high preference score. Oak mushroom(Lentinus edodes) is considered a significantly wholesome food. In addition, the dried oak mushroom(Lentinus edodes) has a better flavor and more nutrients than the fresh oak mushroom since vitamins are activated during the drying process. Wheat flour was partially substituted with Lentinus edodes powder to reduce its content. The optimal sensory composite recipe was determined by making iced cookies which have the advantage of long storage, at 3 concentrations of Lentinus edodes powder, yellow sugar and butter, using the central composite design. In addition, the mixing condition of Lentinus edodes powder cookies was optimized by subjecting the cookies to a sensory evaluation and instrumental analysis using the response surface methodology(RSM). The effects of the addition of the three variables on the quality of Lentinus edodes cookies were assessed in terms of texture, color, spread ratio and sensory evaluation. The results of the sensory evaluation produced very significant values for color, appearance, texture, overall quality(p<0.05), flavor(p<0.01) and the results of instrumental analysis showed significant values in lightness(p<0.05), spread ratio, hardness(p<0.01). As a result, the optimal sensory ratio of Lentinus edodes cookies was determined to be Lentinus edodes powder 10.83g, yellow sugar 61.89 g, and butter 120.0 g.

This study was carried out to establish a suitable method for liquid spawn production from Lentinula edodes. The optimum production of liquid spawn (OLS) was achieved using soybean meal medium (SMM) with 0.3% of 850 um oak powder and 10-day incubation period and 0.6 vvm aeration volume. OLS showed activities of laccase on ABTS agar plate and carboxymethyl cellulase (CM-cellulase) on CMC agar plate. In case of liquid spawn, fruiting-body development period was delayed approximately 1 day compared to that of sawdust spawn, however, the yield of 153 g per 1.2 kg polypropylene bag was similar to that of sawdust spawn.

This study was undertaken to examine the feasibility of black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) as substrates for several edible mushrooms. For the cultivation of several edible and/or medicinal fungi on black locust, optimum bulk densities, synthetic or semisynthetic additives, natural additives and pretreatment methods were investigated. Fruit body yields of the fungi on various sawdust media composed of different wood species were also analyzed for testing the capability of black locust as a substrate for mushroom production. Mycelial growths decreased proportional when the bulk density increased. The most suitable carbon and nitrogen sources as additives to promote the mycelial growth were sucrose (2%, w/w) and ammonium phosphate (0.2%, w/w) respectively. When corn-powder and beer-waste as natural additives were added to sawdust of black locust showed the significant growth of mycelia. And the optimum mixing ratio was 10:2:1 (sawdust: corn-powder: beer-waste, w/w). Black locust after cold water treatment showed the outstanding mycelial growths. Any significant changes of pH, moisture content (%) and dry-weight losses (%) could not be found among culture substrates (sawdust of black locust, oak and poplar wood) examined before and after harvesting of fruit bodies. Yield of fruit bodies on black locust culture media were comparable with those culture media composed with oak and poplar wood. The present work indicated strongly the potentiality of black locust as raw materials for edible and medicinal mushrooms.

The application of constructed subsurface-flow wetlands for treatment of wastewater from abandoned mines is being increased. Crushed limestone, oak chips, and mushroom composites are often employed in a bulk form, as the substrates in the bed media. Efficiency of the subsurface-flow treatment system drops with time as the hydraulic conductivity of the wetland soil decreases significantly, presumably due to chemical reactions with the wastewater. The purpose of this study is to investigate the applicability of immobilized beads carrying sulfate reducing bacteria for acid mine drainage treatment system. The ingredients of immobilized beads are organic materials such as mushroom composite and oak chips, limestone powder for a pH buffer, mixed with a modified Coleville Synthetic Brine. It was found that immobilized beads are more efficient than the bulk form for pH recovery, sulfate and heavy metal removal.

4 strains of the oak mushroom Lentinus edodes including the strain ASI 3046 were collected home and abroad to investigate the characterics of mycelial growth on synthetic media and sawdust media. The possibility of artificial culture of Lentinus edodes on media composed of different saw dusts and adding materials was investigated. Results were as follows: The optimum temperature for growth ranged from $22^{\circ}C$ to $26^{\circ}C$ among the lineages of Lentinus edodes. The optimal growth temperature for ASI 3046 strain and ASI 3047 strain was $26^{\circ}C$ and $22^{\circ}C$, respectively. The optimal carbon source for ASI 3046 strain was glucose, and peptone and ammoinum tartrate were proved excellent as nitrogen sources. When Lentinus edodes was cultured on sawdust media by varying the mixing ratio of different sawdusts and adding materials, mixed sawdust media composed of oak sawdust(50%, v/v), poplar sawdust(50%, v/v), acorn powder(5%, v/v) and rice bran(10%, v/v) showed higher yields of fruit bodies. Results showed that the ideal strain of Lentinus edodes for artificial culture on sawdust media was strain ASI 3046.
